 From my experience engaging with development finance literature, Agricultural FinTech, often called AgriFin, refers to digital financial services tailored to farmers. I have seen growing adoption in areas like digital payments, micro-lending, and crop insurance, especially in emerging markets. I would recommend viewing AgriFin as an ecosystem rather than a single solution, shaped by infrastructure, policy, and farmer literacy levels.
